Students will use the Monotype keyboard, composition caster and the Monotype Supercaster to cast and take home their own text and/or a case of type, including fonts of ornaments. This course will be of particular value to letterpress printers who want to experience the full gamut of metal type, from keyboarding, to type casting, to pulling proofs. Please visit the Bixlers’ website at www.mwbixler.com to see specimens of the many Monotype faces available, or call Michael at 315-685-5181 to discuss questions. Students will live at Wells and commute to & from Skaneateles in Wells vans. Limited to five students; no experience in casting required, but letterpress printing experience preferred. Michael Bixler has cast metal type and practiced fine letterpress printing and typography since 1965. He and his wife established their press and letterfoundry near Boston in 1973, and since 1983 have resided in Skaneateles, NY, where they continue to print limited edition books and provide cast metal type to numerous private presses and letterpress printers around the world. Michael is a graduate of Rochester Institute of Technology and teaches letterpress printing at Wells College. Decorative Papers: Paste Paper and Beyond Diane Bond This course will focus on making paste paper but will also explore techniques such as plaster paper, suminagashi and orizomegami. Paste paper is one of the oldest forms of painting and designing the surface of paper using a pigmented paste. It was used for book covers and endpapers. Though some of the ingredients have changed, paste paper offers endless possibilities for creating individualized papers through mark making and patterning. While learning the process of making paste paper, students will experiment with color and design. Plaster paper is a method of painting paper to create a textured surface while suminagashi and orizomegami use inks to create designs. Students will create a compendium of papers and a portfolio to house them. We will discuss applications and uses for our fabulous papers. Diane Bond is a Roycroft Renaissance Master Artisan in book arts. Her experiences as a graphic designer, apprentice bookbinder and art educator along with training with several well known book artists have given her the skills and abilities to create finely crafted functional books as well as artist books. Her work appears in 500 Handmade Books, Volumes 1 & 2 by Lark Publications. Her work is in the collection of the University of Rochester, the Sidney Berger Paper Collection in Boston, Millington Lockwood Business Interiors in Buffalo, and is part of the the Al-Mutanabbi Street Project. She has taught book arts workshops across Western NY and is currently an art teacher in the Orchard Park Central School District. Session One 17 – 23 July 2016 Wood Engraving: Well Crafted Illustration Steven Lee-Davis Wood Engraving was originally developed to illustrate books. Although today the craft of fine-line engraving has largely faded away, it is an art form well worth learning. Wood engraving utilizes special carving tools employed to the end-grain of hard woods resulting in amazingly detailed images that compliment letterpress work. You will learn techniques for carving blocks, creating and transferring imagery, and printing edition prints. You will gain confidence as you practice basic techniques such as tonal development, texture, straight lines, and curves. You will then develop drawings, transfer to the block, engrave, and print. Final images will be proofed and printed on a press. No prior printing experience required, but some drawing ability helpful. Experience with wood-carving, linoleum carving, and intaglio etching a plus. Students will leave with multiple prints and enough skills to work independently. Steven Lee-Davis is a Roycroft Artisan creating limited edition prints. He works in the medium of wood engraving and prints on a Vandercook proof-press or an Albion hand-press. After receiving a Masters of Education at Massachusetts College of Art, he continued his education with an apprenticeship to Barry Moser. It was in Moser’s studio that he learned the craft of wood-engraving. Steven Lee-Davis primarily works on commission creating wood-engraving illustrations. He also teaches workshops and has work in several galleries. Experiential Artists’ Books Scott McCarney Creating a successful artists’ book demands an understanding of the physical elements of the book format in relation to formal visual structures. This workshop will engage participants in holistic approaches that move image-making ideas into innovative bookbinding structures. The week will strive to integrate content, materials, binding techniques and the action of turning pages in time and space into complete and independent works of art. Variations on traditional forms will range from simple pamphlet bindings utilizing unusual folds and inventive sewings to multiple section bindings and concertina structures. Each element of the book will be examined through hands-on experimentation and observation utilizing participants’ choice of images and tools for mark making. Participants are encouraged to bring projects in progress and/or elements for “book experiments.” Scott McCarney is an artist, designer, and educator based in Rochester, New York. He received formal design training at Virginia Commonwealth University in the 197os, and earned an advanced degree in photography from the University at Buffalo/ Visual Studies Workshop (Rochester, NY) in the 1980s. His works can be found in the collections of The Museum of Modern Art, NY; Victoria & Albert Museum, London; and Yale University Art Gallery. His work is shown internationally as well as close to home. His teaching and lecturing extends to Australia, New Zealand, Korea, Mexico, and South America. He currently teaches in the College of Imaging Arts and Science at Rochester Institute of Technology. Session One 17 – 23 July 2016 Pressure Printing and other Contemporary Approaches to Letterpress Brad Vetter Join us in exploring new (and old) techniques in letterpress printing. We will be covering the basics, but also digging deep into some fun alternative image-making using antique type and Vandercook printing presses from the Wells College pressroom. We will focus primarily on Pressure Printing, a non-traditional letterpress technique that creates unique and spontaneous images. Together we will master this process while implementing skills in typography, pattern making and designing for the letterpress. By the end of the week you will have a stack of your incredible prints and some brand new letterpress skills to show off to your friends at home. Brad Vetter is a designer, artist, educator and letterpress printer. After studying graphic design at Western Kentucky University, Brad spent eight years honing his craft at the legendary Hatch Show Print in Nashville, TN, one of the oldest letterpress print shops in the country. Brad left Hatch in 2012 to start his own letterpress and design studio. Bouncing between 18th and 21st century technology and techniques, he continues to hand print rock-and-roll posters while also adding more digital design to his repertoire. Brad frequently lectures and hosts workshops throughout the US as well as teaching college-level design classes. His print work has been shown in such notable venues as the San Francisco MoMA, Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art, Columbia College Center for Book and Paper, and the Danish Museum of Media.

Called “xylographic printing,” it was used before Gutenberg for illustrations, playing cards, and small documents. Moveable type allowed corrections and editing. A wood engraving uses the end grain, where a wood cut uses the plank grain. Polymer plates are made from digital files which drive special engraving machines to produce relief plates. These plates are popular with many of today’s letterpress printers who produce invitations, and collectible prints. Metal relief cylinders were used to print repetitive designs, such as those on wrap - ping paper and wall paper. In the 1930s, the invention of cellophane led to the development of the anilox roller and flexographic printing. Today, flexography prints most of the flexible packaging film which accounts for about half of all packaged products. Hobbyists, artists, and printmakers cut away non-printing areas on sheets of linoleum to create relief surfaces. Wood cut Wood engraving and Metal plate Relief cylinder Flexographic plate Linoleum cut Foundry type began with Gutenberg and evolved through Jenson, Garamond, Moveable type Caslon and many others. Garamond was the first printer to cast type that was sold to other printers. By the 1880s there were almost 80 foundries in the U.S. One newspaper could keep one foundry in business. Machine typesetting changed the status quo and the Linotype had an almost immediate effect on type foundries. Twenty-three foundries formed American Type Founders in 1890.

Not listed here are presses outside the accessioned collections, such as two Vandercook proof presses (a Model 4T and a Universal III) that are now earning an honest living in the office printing shop. At some future time, no doubt, they too will be retired into the collections. The Division of Graphic Arts was established in 1886 as a special kind of print collection with the purpose of representing “art as an industry.” For many years collecting was centered around prints, together with the plates and tools that made them. Not until the middle of the twentieth century did the Division begin to collect printing presses systematically. Even more recently, the scope of collecting has been broadened to include printing type and type-making apparatus.

  • Interview with Wood Engraver, Pete Lawrence
    #NWConnect: Interview with wood engraver, Pete Lawrence Kimberly Glassman (KG): Hello everyone! We have Pete Lawrence here from the Society ​ of Wood Engravers to talk to us about his work and the work of the Society in general. Pete was introduced to the Society of Wood Engravers (SWE) when he started helping hang their annual exhibitions in the 1980s. In 1991 he began his own engravings and joined as a subscriber in the mid-1990s. He was then elected as a member in 1997 and joined the SWE as a designer in 1998, and then finally became a chairman from 2006 until 2011. We are very excited to have you, so thank you Pete for agreeing to do this podcast with us! Pete Lawrence (PL): Thank you for inviting me. ​ KG: No worries! So, just to start, can you please tell us about your practice as a wood ​ ​ engraver and maybe explain a bit more about the process of wood engraving and what it is? PL: Yes, wood engraving is a unique form of producing a print - an image on paper. It goes ​ back to the times in the 1780s-1790s when, who we like to call the ‘founding father of wood engraving’, Thomas Bewick, was working up in Newcastle. He realised that, although his ​ ​ boss Ralph Beilby was working on metal engraving with very sharp tools, he could engrave ​ ​ on boxwood and produce a very fine image, which would replicate the kind of detail that you get by working on metal. So if you could imagine, it gave the effect of metal tools used to do silversmithing and copper engraving, but working on the end grain of boxwood.

  • Printmaking – Woodcut Design Name:______
    PRINTMAKING – WOODCUT DESIGN NAME:___________ Woodcut and wood engraving, prints are made from designs cut in relief on wood (subtractive process), in contrast to copper or steel engraving and etching (which are intaglio). Woodcuts are relief prints. The design is drawn on the surface of a wooden block or plank. The areas that are to be blank are cut away, leaving raised the design that is to be printed. Ink is then rolled or daubed over the raised area. A sheet of paper is placed on top of the block and pressed against it, either in a press or by hand. This pressure transfers the ink to the paper. Since the print is the mirror image of the design on the block, the image must be conceived in reverse. A rubber stamp is a common example of a relief printing process. Woodcutting, the oldest method of printmaking, is accomplished using soft wood with a knife employed along the grain. Concert Poster Design STEP ONE: Decide on one of the following choices for your woodcut design: • Poster Advertisement (Upcoming Performance) • Portrait: Human or Animal • Landscape (Look at reverse for art history of woodcuts) STEP TWO: Begin by making a series of at least 3 conceptual sketches in your sketchbook on your chosen theme. CONSIDER: Positive/negative space, contrast, line and overall composition. STEP THREE: Drawing the reverse outline of your subject matter on the flat top of the piece of wood. REMEMBER: to draw the outline of any text backwards as the print will print front wards. Carefully consider how you design your positive/negative space.
